Yeah I saw that yesterday

[cafeboy]

I wanted to try somthing like this but for the street

Do they sell any quads that are street legal? I don't know much about them, but I've always thought one would make an awesome winter alternative to a motorcycle.

[The Buddha]

A good winter vehicle would have 2 front wheels and 1 rear wheel. Like the can am spyder. Prolly cheaper to buy a canam.
It should also have car style ABS brakes IMHO.
I can visualise making one out of a ZX11/Blackbird/Hayabusa, and have it geared to run ~120 max - with that extra weight, 120 is plenty for that motor.
Cool.

I think 120 might even be high for a winter vehicle, although gearing it any lower than that would leave you with so much torque on the back wheel that you'd never be able to get your tire to stick to the cold pavement. I don't have all that big of an urge to do 100+ mph speeds anymore, and someday when I find my next bike, which will most likely be atleast 900cc, I'll be pretty tempted to gear it down considerably to get the acceleration instead of the top speed, but most likely won't as the random times that I might end up on the highway, I don't want to be riding 70mph at 10k rpm.

I guess a 3 wheeler might pretty alright in winter as well, as long as it had clearance for knobbie tires

Growng up in iowa and driving 4 wheelers and 3 wheelers in the winter around the farm........unless its four weel drive its worthless........no wieght at all to get traction........you turn the front on a three wheeler and it just slides......a reverse trike would have even less traction unless the front wheels were the drive wheels..........

[qwertydude]

This would be fun to slide around on icy roads.

[Jim Knopf]

servus,

this would be fun to slide around on the roads:



168 HP!

[the mole]

Anything good for winter would have 4 wheels a roof and a heater!

[tripleb]

I'd rather have one of these... roof, heater and AWD

[Danny500]
